Impacts of the Americans with Disabilities Act on Transit Agency Liability
TRB's Transit Cooperative Research Program (TCRP) Legal Research Digest 54:
Impacts of the Americans with Disabilities Act on Transit Agency Liability explores the types of Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) requirements and legal claims against transit agencies.
The ADA has transformed U.S. transit agencies, which now have sophisticated programs to address a wide variety of accessibility
goals in such areas as the design of transit stations, bus and rail vehicle design, media stop announcements, paratransit programs, website design and content, and many other tools that address ADA requirements. This research presents an assessment of challenges in implementing the ADA from the perspective of transit operators. Additionally, this digest summarizes relevant guidance from the U.S. Federal Transit Administration. Download the following appendix that accompanies the report:
